And here I am thinking about adding a 4th battery to my Stock Dual battery setup.

Nice accurate advice. Very few people know that your start battery only has 2 functions. 1. To start your vehicle. 2. Provide and electrical sink whilst the vehicle is running. It is not for anything else !

Depends, if you have older car then yes. New cars with start/stop and other stuff work differently, some of them even have secondary battery that power all of your electronics so voltage doesn't fluctuate when you start your car.

@JRiddledickDangerfield

@@cekpi7 still the same. Second battery is providing a stable electrical sink voltage under crank and the stop/ start variants use a more durable battery to allow more starts.

Do you have videos explaining how to set up a DC to DC charger and a LifeP04 battery system?

You're a detailed educator mate...

8:01 Using the 100Ah battery as their example, the battery that drains their battery to only 20% full or 80AhX250 cycles=20,000Ah for the life of the battery. Next one 50% full or 50AhX500 cycles=25,000Ah, finally the cycle that the uploader is recommending is 80% full or 20AhX1,200 cycles=24,000Ah. As you can see in this scenario it's actually best to drain your battery to 50% as you get the most Ah of all the examples. In fact their is only 20% difference between the best and worse case scenarios. I think the most important message for people is to never drain your battery below 12 volts as below this amount you can damage your batteries and significantly damage your battery. Make sure you have an automatic cut off switch that protects your battery from deep and catastrophic damage to your battery.

Subbed. Looking forward to Pt.2.

will you try TrueAm dual battery isolators and see the diffence

A little bit off-topic but how close together can you place two of your slimline batteries together? It is for a rear compartment of a camper trailer. I was hoping to keep as much room as possible for other electrical gear.

Hey My Man! Great vid. Did hear you say I can't keep my diehard agm under the hood as a secondary?!

Gday Cahn, is there a video on how to add a 12 volt accessory panel off the main battery into the back of a ute wing kit?

Hello! can I charge my Ecoflow Delta 2 removable lithium battery with a DC/DC charger while driving? thanks so much!

I’m building a 2020 Silverado 2500 HD for overlanding. It comes with dual starting batteries since it’s diesel but I would like to install 1 or 2 batteries in the back of the truck to run my 4 diode dynamics SSC1 camping lights and a Dometic CFX3 55IM refrigerator. What would be a good set up for this?

Hi mate. Can you add a second auxiliary battery to a batter box. Not sure if you would have to re run all the earth cables off the second battery.

So it can run the fridge and be charged from solar panel at the same time if using the battery box? I just had my Kings MPPT solar controller kill my battery. Came back and it was bubbling, and not a lithium battery. Not set up as a dual battery, just charging from solar, and running camp fridge.

Problem: I have a 1999 Suburban with a secondary battery tray. I want to install a second battery with a VSR Battery Doctor (Wirthco brand) that has an "Override" button for jump starting off the secondary battery. My problem is I have all my camping accessories wired to the main under hood fuse box, which is connected to the primary battery. Question: Is it OK to pull the fuse box cable off the primary battery and hook it up to the secondary battery, so I can use my accessories? If by chance I accidentally ran the secondary battery dead, would the "Override" button work to power the starter relay and ignition system to start the engine?

I'm currently homeless and just got a vehicle to go nomadic. I'm planning on using a 2001 Toyota avalon. It's small, but it's all I need for now. I think I found the right place to figure some stuff out.

Can I use this system on my overlander, I'm using bed rack and I'm thinking what if the system gets wet in raining weather. Should I install the panel behind the rear row seat?

Thanks from over the ditch

Is the fridge only using 12watts? seems too little if you ask me. i have one and it uses about 4 amps

Like your videos , but is there anyone in the states doing this?

Can I charge my VAN Parallel (Auxiliary) Batteries through ISOLATOR to connect with Smart Alternator.

I do RC car racing and need a field battery to charge my 4s lipo batteries. I think a deep cycle and solar power will work great...

Can you connect 2 kings battery boxes together? If so, how?

got an ambulance with 3 batteries and 4 charging systems. 2 alternators independent, solar, and shore. now thinking doing some voltage smart idolators to connect the independent systems,

Keen to know more on that power supply board also keen to see parts 2,3 and on if it goes past part 2

Great video! Excuse my ignorance, I have a question, I have 3 agm 125 amp hr. batteries all in series, connect to my 3 (100 watt solar panels) also connect in series .Do I have to recharge them individually when there about to go below 50 percent, or can I leave them in series and have all three batteries recharge at the same time. ( Have a battery charger and a 2000 Honda generator).

@4wdsupacentreAu

Are you sure they're in series? if so they're running at 36V 215Ah. If they're in parallel then they're 12V, 375Ah. Yes you can charge them all together if this is the case - just connect the positive lead of the charger to the first battery and the negative to the furthest battery. that way it's charging equally through all three.
